Received the kit last week and finally had some spare time to fit it to my 2013 A6. I have to say it’s impressive. I connect my iPhone 7 to the CarPlay kit, it shows all my favourite apps, Apple maps, Spotify, WhatsApp, Apple Music, etc. Then I tested the handsfree phone calls and messages, Siri captured my voice accurately and making phone calls is really easy. I tried Apple mirroring function too, and it works better than expected. Display is very clear and I can watch Youtube videos without any problem. Customer service is fantastic. They are always easily contactable during my installation process.

Slight delay in shipping, waiting for a cable on back order. But now installed. Love it. Had an Apple CarPlay retro fitted in my old A4, and going to a new car was a step back in tech, because the Phone drives the system.

Installation was pretty straightforward after having to convert my old A4 to a double din, this was more manageable and easier. Advice? well, fitting all the cables behind the multimedia unit was a pain, but then when isn’t it when you’re adding even more? I mounted the unit with double sided padded tape in between the glove box and dashboard. There was a nice section of framework to attach it to.

I managed to feed the USB cable into the ash tray/front storage box, this required taking the gear stick surround out, and handily a little tab in the storage box can pop out to feed the cable into. I bought a new right angle lightning cable so I could accommodate my iPhone plus.It fits perfectly.

Anyway, I’m happy and waiting for iOS 12 to bring Google maps into play. I trust their traffic a little more.
